running a 2800+ barton with a 400 MHz FSB

I'd like to run it with 200x10.5 = 2100. I'm not looking for an extreme
OC or anything; just wanna get the FSB up to 400. Can this be done, or is
the multi locked @ 12.5?

How can I tell if my 2800+ is locked, and if it's locked, how can I unlock
it (got a url w/ pics or something)?

Thanks all!

What is the advantage of running a different multi?

I have my 2800+ (AXDA2800DKV4D - AQXDA0316) set at 168MHz x 12.5 running at
2103MHz - I got the FSB up to 175 but get a little unstable.

Should I be trying to tweak the multi in the bios? Should I put the figure
up or down?

Si.

i can get my 2800 up to 2.3ghz (200x11.5) at stock voltage and stock amd hsf
got an a7n8x dlx

FSB x Mult = CPU MHz.
So if you want to run the FSB @ 200 I think you'll need to lower the
mult. You should be able to run a Barton 2800+ @ 200 x 10.5 at default
vcore as that would only be around a 17MHz overclock on the CPU.

Hi,

I'm running an AMD 2800 Barton on a A7n8x v2 board using 200X11.5 for 2305.
It's rock solid. Also have 1 gig of 4000 hyper X ram, (dual channel) and
Koolance water cooling. This thing kicks butt. CPU runs around 26-27 C most
of the time. Never seen it past 29.

I'm also running a PCI video card and a dual channel Matrox AGP card. Three
19" monitors on line. That's the one thing I couldn't do without. It's great
to not have to minimize screens, just drag them to the 2nd or 3rd monitor.
I can watch a DVD on one, surf the Net on another, and still have a monitor
left for what ever else needs doing! It's like having three computers
attached to one mouse and keyboard.

Hi Netguider, I have essentially the same setup as you: Koolance
water cool, 2800+ but 1 G of PC2700 DDR in Dual channel. I have a ATI
Radeon 9000 pro with a digial and analog connector. When I plugged 2
monitors in, one digital and the other analog, they both displayed the
same desktop, it's just like having duplicate monitors. Can you
elaborate how you config your to work independently. Thanks

Hi,

I didn't really have to do anything special to make the three monitors work
together. The AGP Matrox card has the software for the duel setup. When I
installed the PCI card, XP-Pro found it and when I clicked on the
"properties", "settings" menu, I show all three monitors on the screen.

The two other boxes say, "Use this device as the primary monitor" and
"Extend my Windows desktop onto this monitor." That brought up all three
monitors. The cursor moves across all three. I can drag and drop between
them. The Matrox software lets me run them independently or I can configure
them to all show the same thing. I can even spread Excel across all three
monitors!

It's great. I think I'd go back to an old Radio Shack "Trash-80" before I'd
give up the three monitors. I'm thinking about adding a fourth :-)
